le Palais Oriental - Montreux

The view from the terrace is exquisite, the food is absolutely delicious and good looking, the decor of the building is stunning, the waiters are very friendly, the bathrooms are clean, everything is perfect. I would come here every day if I could. One of the best restaurants I’ve ever eaten at.

I feel ripped off! The most over inflated prices I’ve ever seen. We had vege curry and couscous and the dishes were not good/tasty/quality at all. I felt like they’d used the cheapest frozen veggies from super market and watered down sauce. We complained about the poor quality of the food, but were not offered any discount. The manager wouldn’t come to take care of the situation he/she was on a break and told the waiter to just make us pay the full price. So we paid 82chf for the two poor dishes and a small bottle of water. Fair price would have been no more than 40. We’re never going back and definitely not recommending this place. Manager isn’t interested in your feedback/experience, they just want your money.

Very good middle eastern food. The daily specials are very good and a great value. white tablecloth with attentive service.

Entertaining chat from owner and our waiter Food delicious Decor interesting Wine list good Seasonally quiet when we visited

It is located right on the promenade along the lake, with large open windows. This restaurant offers a good service, in a professional way and in an ambiance reminding of the Middle East with its nice décor. The views are wonderful and the portions just the right size. The dishes taste good although a bit expensive, but this is to be expected due to its location. We were also offered free small dishes on the house at the beginning and end of our meals. Recommended.
